Olive Frittata Food

OLIVE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a small 6 to 8-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add onion to the hot oil and cook until soft and tender but not caramelized - keep the onion white. Add roasted peppers and olives and combine. Beat the eggs with half-and-half or milk and season them with salt and pepper. (Go easy on the salt because of the olives.) Pour the eggs into the skillet and keep settling them to the bottom of the pan as you would an omelet. When the eggs are firm on the bottom and set, transfer pan to the oven for about 10 minutes until top is golden brown. Cut and serve from the skillet or invert the frittata on to a serving plate.

OLIVE-POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, cook potatoes, onion, and garlic in oil, covered, for 4-5 minutes.
• Lift lid and season with salt and pepper.
• With a large spatula, turn mixture over to cook on the other side, until potatoes are tender (you may need to turn potatoes one additional time).
• While potatoes are cooking, beat eggs in a bowl with oregano and salt.
• Pour the eggs over the potatoes when the potatoes have become tender.
• Sprinkle the top of the eggs with the olives, and cook until mixture almost sets (you may need to run a spatula around the edge and allow uncooked egg to flow beneath).
• Sprinkle frittata with feta and parmesan cheeses.
• Place frittata under the broiler and cook for 1-2 minute or until top is set.
• Cut frittata into wedges and serve hot.

FRITTATA WITH SPINACH, OLIVES AND CHICKEN SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk until frothy.
• In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken sausage coins and brown them on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes, turning often. Transfer the sausage to a plate until ready to use.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the skillet and heat it over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft but not browned. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon room temperature water to the pan to stop the garlic browning, and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, then stir in the spinach and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted and the water in the pan evaporates, about 2 minutes. Spread this frittata filling evenly in the skillet and layer with the chicken sausage.
• Pour the egg-milk mixture over the frittata filling and use a silicone spatula to scrape the sides of the pan and gently pull eggs from the edges toward the middle so that soft curds form and the frittata begins to firm up.
• Give the pan a couple of good shakes to release the frittata from the pan bottom (the top of the frittata will still be raw). Sprinkle the olives and feta over the eggs. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the fritatta is mostly dry (the feta will release some liquid--this is fine--but just be sure the egg is completely cooked) and lightly browned on top, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Let rest 5 minutes, then slide the frittata onto a large plate and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and pepper to taste. Top with more feta, parsley and olive oil. Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.

HERB-AND-OLIVE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Put the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the olives and herbs and cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften and become dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Meanwhile, beat together the eggs, milk, flour and some salt and pepper.
• Turn heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet, using a spoon if necessary to evenly distribute the herbs and olives. Cook, undisturbed, until the eggs are just set, 5 to 10 minutes. (You can set the top further by putting the pan in an oven at 350 for a few minutes or by running it under the broiler for a minute or two.) Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

EASY OVEN FRITTATA RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Whisk eggs and water in medium bowl until blended. Reserve 1/2 cup cheese. Add remaining cheese to eggs along with tomatoes, basil and bacon; mix well.
• Pour into 9-inch pie plate sprayed with cooking spray; sprinkle with reserved cheese.
• Bake 30 min. or until knife inserted in center comes out clean, and top is puffed and golden brown.

OLIVE GARDEN PASTA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• FRITTATA BATTER: Beat eggs, half and half, cornstarch, salt and nutmeg thoroughly until all ingredients are completely blended.
• Blend the 2" spaghetti pieces, green onion rings and bacon pieces in a bowl until evenly mixed.
• Coat a 1-1/2 qt round baking dish, including walls, with spray or margarine.
• Empty the spaghetti mixture into the baking dish and spread evenly. Add the frittata batter to cover the filling mix.
• Bake for about 25 minutes until center is set. When center is set, cover the frittata evenly with the Fontina and bake until cheese is golden. Turn off the heat and open oven door. Let the frittata sit in the open oven for 15 minutes for the batter to set more firmly and make removing from the dish easy. Before serving, sprinkle with Parmesan and cut into 4 wedges.
